Gever Tulley teaches life lessons through tinkering

Translator: Gulnoza Yakubova Reviewer: Farrukh Yakubov

This is the exact moment

Ayni mana shu paytda

that I started creating something called Tinkering School.

men Duradgorlik maktabini ocha boshladim.

Tinkering School is a place where kids can pick up sticks

Duradgorlik maktabi shunday joyki, bu yerda bolalar tayoqlarni

and hammers and other dangerous objects,

bolg'alarni va boshqa havfli narsalarni oladi,

and be trusted.

va bu bolalarga ishonib bo'ladi.

Trusted not to hurt themselves,

O'zlariga zarar yetkazmasliklari uchun va

and trusted not to hurt others.

boshqalarga zarar yetkazmasliklari uchun ularga ishonishadi.

Tinkering School doesn't follow a set curriculum,

Duradgorlik maktabi aniq bir o'quv dasturiga amal qilmaydi.

and there are no tests.

Shu bilan birga sinovlar ham yo'q.

We're not trying to teach anybody any specific thing.

Biz hech kimga hech qanday mahsus narsa o'rgatmoqchi emasmiz.

When the kids arrive

Bolalar maktabga kelganlarida,

they're confronted with lots of stuff:

ular ko'p narsalarga,

wood and nails and rope and wheels,

ya'ni yog'och, mixlar, arqon va g'ildiraklar,

and lots of tools, real tools.

hamda ko'plab asboblar, haqiqiy asboblarga duch keladilar.

It's a six-day immersive experience for the kids.

Bu bolalar uchun 6-kunlik juda mashg'ul tajriba.

And within that context, we can offer the kids time --

O'sha paytning o'zida bolalarga vaqt ajratib beramiz.

something that seems in short supply

Juda ham band bo'lgan hayotlarida

in their over-scheduled lives.

kam deb hisoblangan narsaga vaqt ajratamiz.

Our goal is to ensure that they leave

Bizning maqsadimiz, ular maktabga kelgan paytidan ko'ra, ketayotganlarida

with a better sense of how to make things

narsalarni qanday bajarish haqida

than when they arrived,

yaxshiroq tushunchaga ega bo'lish

and the deep internal realization

va shunchaki narsalrni o'yanb ko'rish orqali narsalarning mohiyatini tushunib yetsih kabi

that you can figure things out by fooling around.

chuqur ichki hissiyotga ega bo'lishidir.

Nothing ever turns out as planned ... ever.

Hech qachon hech narsa rejalashtirilgandek bo'lmaydi.

(Laughter)

(Kulgi)

And the kids soon learn

Bolalar tez orada hamma proyektlar

that all projects go awry --

noto'g'i yo'lda ketishini anglab yetdailar,

(Laughter)

(Kulgi)

and become at ease with the idea that every step

va proyektdagi har bir qadam

in a project is a step closer

shirin muvaffaqiyat yoki quvnoq muvafaqqiyatsizlik sari

to sweet success,

yanada bir qadam yaqinlashganilik g'oyasi bilan

or gleeful calamity.

o'zlarini hursand his qiladilar.

We start from doodles and sketches.

Biz rasmlar chizish va eskizdan boshlaymiz.

And sometimes we make real plans.

Ba'zida haqiqiy rejalar tuzamiz.

And sometimes we just start building.

Va ba'zi paytlarda qurilishdan boshlaymiz.

Building is at the heart of the experience:

Qurilish tajribaning eng markaziy qismi hisoblanadi.

hands on, deeply immersed

Amaliy, juda ham mashg'ul

and fully committed to the problem at hand.

va oldidagi vazifaga to'liq berilgandir.

Robin and I, acting as collaborators,

Robin va men, birgalikda ishlovchi hamkasblar,

keep the landscape of the projects

tugallanishiga yaqinlab qolgan

tilted towards completion.

proektlarning peyzajini saqlab qo'yamiz.

Success is in the doing,

Muvaffaqiyat ish bajarishdadir.

and failures are celebrated and analyzed.

Omadsizliklar esa nishonlanib tahlil qilinadi.

Problems become puzzles

Muammolar jumboqlarga aylanadi

and obstacles disappear.

va to'sqinliklar yo'q bo'ladi.

When faced with particularly difficult

Ayni qiyin bo'lgan to'sqinlik yoki

setbacks or complexities,

murakkabliklarga uchraganda,

a really interesting behavior emerges: decoration.

juda ham qiziqarli hulq paydo bo'ladi: bezash.

(Laughter)

(Kulgi)

Decoration of the unfinished project

Tugallanmagan proektni bezash

is a kind of conceptual incubation.

ongli inkubatsiya kabidir.

From these interludes come deep insights

Ularni hozirgina qiyin ahvolga qo'yib turgan muammolarni

and amazing new approaches to solving the problems

echish uchun ajoyib va yangi usullar

that had them frustrated just moments before.

huddi yuqorida aytilgan antraktlardan kelib chiqadi.

All materials are available for use.

Biz foydalanishimiz uchun hamma materialla bor.

Even those mundane, hateful, plastic grocery bags

Hattoki o'sha oddiy, jirkanchli, plastik o'ziq ovqat sumkalari

can become a bridge

sizlar tasavvur qilmagan darajada

stronger than anyone imagined.

kuchli ko'prik bo'la oladi.

And the things that they build

Ular quradigan narsalar hatto

amaze even themselves.

ularning o'zlarini ham hayratda qoldiradi.

Gever Tulley: A rollercoaster built by seven-year-olds.

Gever Tulley: Yetti yoshlilalr qurgan uchar chang'i.

Video: Yay!

Video: Yay!

(Applause)

(Qarsaklar)

GT: Thank you. It's been a great pleasure.

Gever Tulley: Rahmat sizlarga. Judam ham maroqli bo'ldi.

(Applause)
